7 Graduation & Mizuki

I woke up early in the morning, did a few streatches and Saitama exercises (One punch man) got ready and went to the academy. Most of the students were excited to graduate. My clone particularly didn't make any friends in the academy and acted like the typical revenge obsessed Sasuke so as to not rise any suspicion. I really don't want to stand out atleast till Hiruzen dies and Tsunade takes over as I don't trust that old fox. Thats the reason I don't want to warn him or save him.

While I was thinking, Iruka came in and started hand over papers for the written exams. It was easy as I finished it in no time. Then the practical exam started. like in the anime, I passed top of the class. All the students I know of passed except Naruto who failed in the E-rank clone technique as Naruto performed a clone that looked like a zombie which ainked into the ground like paper.

I came outside and hid myself waiting for Mizuki to approach Naruto who was sitting on the swing dejected. After waiting for a while I saw Mizuki approach Naruto. Surprisingly there was no anbu that was following Naruto in sight today. Mizuki came to Naruto with a smile "Naruto do you want to pass and become a ninja" he asked. Naruto obviously said yes. Then Mizuki told him about the forbidden scroll and Naruto went to steal it.

I quitely followed Naruto as he entered the jutsu vault. I made a shadow clone and made the clone enter the vault after Naruto while I waited in a nearby tree. After a while I saw Naruto get out with the scroll and head to the forest. I followed him slowly all the while looking for anyone approaching. Meanwhile my clone was busy in the vault searching for the Hachimon (Eight gates) technique and any fuinjutsu and first Hokage's wood release technique scrolls which was copied by Danzo and given to Yamato.

After some time following Naruto, I saw him sit on a tree and start reading the scroll. I thought it was the right time for me to move in and approached him. He was startled to see me and asked "Sa..sa..Sasuke what are you doing here?" I just said "following a criminal. You know that the scroll is forbidden for a reason right. Why did you steal it?" I asked. Naruto told me that he did it to graduate and I told him that it is a crime to take away the scroll.

After telling that to naruto, I told him to show me what he is learning and he obliged. I quickly opened the scroll and told him to learn the shadow clone technique and I myself Memorised the flying thunder god and the Impure world Reanimation jutsu, blood clone and exploding clones as fast as I can. I told Naruto that he should only learn shadow clone and hid with him in the trees. I saw Iruka coming searching for Naruto and held him back. Then Iruka confrunted Mizuki. The fight began. Everything happened the same way in the anime.

Naruto totally forgot about me and saved Iruka and got the leaf headband from him. Then I started to go back home. When I reached home my clone dispelled. I had a smile in my face after my clone diapelled. As everyone was concentrated on Naruto, nobody came to the vault and my clone had enough time to memorise many wood release jutsus of the first Hokage, the eight gates technique and some fuinjutsu as well.

I was happy as I reached home with the pkan success and went through the jutsus in my head again and again. The eight gates were a simple technique. You just have to use your chakra to force open the tenketsu points where the gates are located. The only drawback was to train your body to withstand the pressure of opening the gates and the sudden increase in power will shatter your bones and the speed will shread your muscles and the increase in bloodflow will strain your heart.

As I have the healing powers of the first hokage, and I have trained my body carrying weights more than lee, I can open the first gate easily without getting any injuries. The most difficult jutsu was the flying thunder god, but I had time to learn it slowly. So all in all It was the most profitable encounter I had ever since I came ro this world. Tomorrow I will be paired with Naruto and Sakura. I need a way to improve sakura's skills. I have one year before the chunin exams. Thinking of all these I went to sleep.
